What’s happening with Precision Agriculture Satellite Connectivity Act?

The Precision Agriculture Satellite Connectivity Act, known as H.R. 1618, passed the House on July 14, 2025, and has remained in the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation since that date. The Senate must now choose to hold a vote, but the bill faces a high hurdle because the Senate often does not schedule votes for legislation passed by the House. History shows that most bills passed by one chamber do not become law.
